Tulips. 



The Tulip is one of the most celebrated and esteemed of bulbs. For spring decoration it 

 cannot be surpassed in beauty and effectiveness. The ease with which it is grown — its great var- 

 iety of color, and its cheapness — make it a universal favorite. It should be planted in October, 

 in a well prepared soil— five inches apart, and so deep that the point of the bulb is two inches 

 below the surface. 



EARLY DWARF DUC VAN THOL TULIPS. 



These are the earliest, dwarfest, and the best adapted for forcing. Their exceedingly brilliant 

 colors make them very attractive and effective when planted in beds, out of doors. They are also 

 admirably suited for house culture, and succeed well in moss, sand or water. If potted in Sep- 

 tember they can be forced into bloom in December.
